Vampire’s Masquerade Ball Photo Gallery

We were recently involved in shooting an amazing event, the 8th annual Vampire’s Masquerade Ball on March 27th.  Lady Raven has organized this event for years and her staff and volunteers were exceptional to work with.  We didn’t really know what to expect but were excited about having this opportunity to being part of a very elegant and exciting party.  From the moment we turned our lights on we had a line of Vampires waiting to have a mini photo shoot with us.  The costumes and masks were beyond elegant and very exciting for us as photographers.  What made it all so much better was that everyone who got in front of our lens was ready to play and posed it out like super models.  From fangs to hoop skips with corsets we couldn’t have dreamed of the amount of time and effort everyone put in to dressing for this very special event.  We were privileged  to be part of this event and hope to help again next year.

Again our biggest thanks to Lady Raven and the Melody Ballroom for hosting such an amazing event.  Here are some of our favorite portraits from the evening.  Click to enlarge the images and scroll on down for the entire public gallery link.

Portraits of Love – UPDATE

We have some good news.  The Portraits of Love program that we are participating in has been extended through the month of November.  We have been incredibly busy with free portrait sittings of military families for the past month and now have time to schedule more families.  The goal is to send 10,000 portraits of military families to their loved ones serving overseas for the holidays.  Meeting these families has left us humbled and speechless.  The sacrifices they are making every day are unimaginable and they deserve everyone’s support.  A big thank you to both FOX12 News http://www.kptv.com/video/21205174/index.html and KGW News Portland for helping us get the word out about this important program.
